You still don't get it... Scotland is beautiful and gorgeous... but I'm not there and I'm the one who's important :shifty:

Heh, I think they have planes and trains these days to travel a long way quite quickly

I think some people are ignoring you molona

Isn't Madrid one of the hotest places in Spain at this time of the year? You should use it as an excuse to come to somewhere nice and cool.

Well then, I guess I know where I'll be on August 16!

That's a pretty scary-looking area, and I speak as a Londoner. It's a good thing it finishes a 8pm, there'll be just enough daylight left to get back to the station.

Looks like a normal street to me. Why is it scary?

Looks pretty creepy to me. Just Photoshop some Dark into it and it could be the scene for an urban fantasy... with vampires, werewolves of London, murderers, time travel and Jack the Ripper.

Narrated by Vincent Price and Alfred Hitchcock.

Sounds pretty awesome actually, fighting crime and bad code and SQL injections, but I have a wedding the day before and we'll be drinking deep into the night.

Soho has a certain - reputation. You can get a great education reading the business cards in the 'phone boxes. :eek2: It's a long time since I was last there, but I never found the area too scary. My husband worked there before we were married (as a clergyman, I hasten to add :lol:).

As guido said, it looks OK to me. Nice cars etc. I know of Soho's bad reputation from 19th Century novels, but thought that had changed now. (But will take Technobear's word for it that it's still got a certain ... reputation.)
